or is there even more androgynous centers too (I'd think Mercury is pretty similar to that energy)?

human design: how certain gates and channels fit gender/genderless stereotypes

feminine

gate 2: this is what i think of when people say "women's intuition" - it's all about sensing with this gate. they feel things out instead of relying on guidance and rules.

gate 13: a receptive gate - in the olden days women were the gatherers and men were the hunters. now a days this gate is synonymous with receiving messages from others - often people feel comfortable with the active gate person to the point where things are overshared to them... its the placement of an empath - therapists commonly have this placement. a lot societal expectations for feminine individuals center on the themes of this gate: receptivity, comforting, empathy, etc.

gate 15: the love for others and unassuming energy of this gate in my opinion aligns with femininity. its like a mother nature energy there is love/support/respect for all of the world's creatures.

channel 2->14: this feels like the magic of the feminine. there is one place where all things end and begin as people say and that is the womb. this is a gate that reminds me of such power - the creation of life is unlike anything else.

channel 37->40: these are trustworthy people - their word is their bond. you can trust them completely without fear. they use shared values, desires, and emotions to create stronger connections with others. i feel like these people also have the tendency to be very touchy feely.

masculine

gate 10: no fears just vibes. this placement is one of those that is hard to place - its just so indifferent and cocky to me? no one is this prideful and sure of themselves as a masculine energy?

gate 21: not to get all cave person again like but this is a hunter not a gatherer. they bring home the bacon, are protective, and are a primary decision maker.

gate 34: this just a gate of raw power and independence - which screams masculinity to me.

channel 21->45: "this is a mans world". this is a placement fit for a king. this people are authoritative, leaders, and natural managers of people/things around them.

channel 34->20: business man vibes. this is a force to be reckoned with - they are unstoppable and ooze capability. its sort of cocky to me again...

androgyny

gate 29: this gate knows how to adapt it doesn't lean any which way. it can be passive or assertive depending on the situation.

gate 44: again survival for survival sake type of vibes - they can be both the hunter and the gatherer with this gate active.

channel 1->8: tabula rasa vibes - powerful in a mysterious way. its not clear or concise. they know who they are and that is all that matters to them.

channel 9->52: this is a passive (feminine) and an active (masculine) gate meshing together. they have the ability to be both productive yet patient and introspective.

I want to ask you about the Human Design. We have the Personality(Conscious) vs Design(Unconscious) sides. The design side has a birthdate, 88 days before the actual birthday. Why is that? I have watched that maybe the day of our souls entered the body, and one day I have looked its birthchart (with the birthdate of design side) and I kinda relate to it but idk if its convinient. Please, is the design chart valid or not? Thank you

human design: how does the design portion of the chart work?

hi, i briefly covered the purpose of the design chart and why i believe it's taken 88 days before. but i am happy to review some textbook reasons of why it's valid!

unconscious influences: the position of the planets 88 days before your birth represents genetic, cellular, and ancestral influences. these are traits that operate below your conscious awareness, but deeply affect your life and how you interact with the world. they are still their in the gates of your chart and grant you abilities but you are likely unaware that you have them.

the body’s intelligence: its how your body processes information and experiences; often operating on an instinctual or automatic level. this can be in terms of health, emotions, and physical responses to situations. again, these are unconscious abilities.

understanding conditioning: this reveal how external factors like family, culture, and society have shaped certain unconscious patterns or behaviors over time. it's a bit like pavlov's dogs or anything to that extent - your soul and the universe set up what you wanted to experience and where you would live and who you with. this part of the chart is that.

here is an example from my chart: the 4th gate for me is active but unconscious.

"4 - problem solver: fixing, solutions for problems that don't exist, over-preparedness, needing to always be doing something, puzzle lovers, can't understand something and getting anxiety from not being able to understand, over fixation, needing to lighten up, cleverness, having an answer for everything, whats relevant, etc."

this has more to do with how i was raised than it does with conscious effort in my opinion. my 13th gate is active and conscious i choose to listen to others (that's something i consciously do). i can't help it that i end up not being very comforting, but instead i go into problem solving mode. even if i am trying my hardest not to start problem solving and giving advice, the "how can i help fix this" dialogue starts in my head. and that is probably because no one was around to help me fix things when i was little. my father was absent, most of the time i spent with my stepmother but it was often in front of a tv. and my mother work a lot as my primary care taker and a single mother so i grew up in daycare. i had to learn to be independent and fix things on my own. unconscious i guess i always wanted to have help and advice from others so i actively do so in the waking world.

so i recommend looking at the design portion as things that guided you to becoming who you are - it might take a bit of self-reflection. but it does have validity. it has as much validity as a vedic and a topical chart, a solar return and a venus return, a persona chart, etc. it requires unpacking when you might not instantly understand "why?", but it's there.
